Excursão de 1 dia de ônibus para o Festival da Parede de Neve de Tateyama Kurobe 2026 saindo de Nagoya

as expected, it was a long bus ride going to tateyama and getting back. we enjoyed the snow although it was rainy, cloudy and snow wall was closed because of the bad weather. the tour guide was friendly. we loved the bento lunch, it was fulfilling.

Ms. Noda, the tour leader, and the driver were both very polite. They gave clear instructions on when to board the bus, and important information was broadcast via machine in Mandarin, English, and Korean. They also approached non-Japanese customers to provide written reminders in Chinese. The itinerary itself wasn't particularly special, as it simply followed the mountain road. Two hours at Murodo was certainly not enough, though it would suffice if you only wanted to see the snow wall and buy souvenirs there. Lunch was a bento box; if a light dinner could also be provided, it would be even more cost-effective. The 'Alpine Village' mentioned in the itinerary was actually a rest stop on the way there, and naturally, there were far fewer people on the return journey. The driver drove very steadily, and there was always a rest stop after about 1.5 hours of driving to stretch our legs.

This was one of the best experiences during our trip. Everything was well-organized and hassle-free since transportation was already arranged. The views along the alpine route were absolutely breathtaking, especially the snow wall. Definitely worth it if you want to experience the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route without the stress of planning everything on your own.

The weather forecast played a trick on us. It was supposed to be fair weather, but it ended up raining for most of the trip. It's the one place where you can see snow-covered mountains up close, even in early June. The snow walls aren't as majestic as about a quarter of the snow has melted, but they're still a sight to behold. If you're up for a hike, do explore Mikurigaike Pond, which offers stunning views of the Murodo volcanic plateau. I would have enjoyed it thoroughly if not for the weather, but it's still quite an experience, I must say, hiking in the rain and blasting wind.

The meeting point is diagonally opposite McDonald's in the ESCA underground shopping street. It's best to visit the area and have a meal the day before to familiarize yourself with the meeting spot. The tour guide is excellent and speaks a little Chinese. The meeting time is 7:10 AM, and we won't wait for latecomers. If you arrive early, you can buy McDonald's for breakfast. After stopping at a rest area along the way, we'll have lunch. After lunch, we'll head up the mountain. There will be no internet after passing the Tateyama toll booth. Internet will be available at the summit. After getting off the bus, first take photos of the snow wall, then go to the entrance to buy souvenirs. You can also go to the third-floor observation deck for a commemorative photo for 2000 yen. Be sure to wear sunglasses, as the intensity of the snow's reflection will hurt your eyes, regardless of whether it's sunny or cloudy. Although it rained, we were fortunate that everything went smoothly.

The snow wall was a bit low in height when we visited. I recommend going in mid-April for the snow wall. Be prepared for 11-12 hours of just sitting on the bus. The view was worth it though. The food was also good. I loved the smoked fish, the rice, and the pudding with strawberry syrup. I loved it all.

Malgré le long trajet en bus, le voyage en valait la peine. La guide touristique a fait de son mieux pour nous tenir informés et a fourni des faits intéressants tout au long du trajet en bus. Les chauffeurs de bus ont fait un excellent travail en manœuvrant en toute sécurité sur la route sinueuse et montagneuse. Il y avait de nombreuses visites ce matin-là, mais le point d'enregistrement était très organisé et tout était clairement étiqueté pour réduire toute confusion que vous pourriez avoir.

よく組織されたツアーでしたが、唯一の点は、ツアーガイドが日本人で、英語があまり話せないことを謝罪し、翻訳された英語のガイド用紙を私たちに渡してくれたことです。立山アルペンルートの雪の壁は本当に美しく、長い道のりも価値があります。立山村でのランチは、野菜ご飯付きの美味しい鶏肉の鍋でした。強くお勧めします！

The journey was very long, spend more than 10h on the road: departed at 8 am, reached there about 1.30 pm. Left at 3.40 pm, reached Nagoya at 9.20 pm. I would recommend staying 1N if time permits.

The journey was well-planned, featuring two scheduled bus breaks each way. Although we encountered heavy fog during our trip, it cleared up slightly toward the end of our visit.
